, and State of New York.

The object of this invention is to produce a pail for use in prisons, hospitals, and families, that will not oxidize or retain and emit the unpleasant odors of the fluids carried therein; the nature of which consists in constructing a vessel, the body or exterior of which may be composed of wood, tin, or other suitable material, having an interior lining of composition metal capable of receiving and retaining a very smooth and close surface or polish and of great hardness, of which composition feldspar forms the principal ingredient or base, and a packing of non-conducting material, as I will further explain by reference to the accompanying drawing, of which Figure l is an elevation of a pail constructed according to my device; Fig. 2, a vertical section; and Fig. 3, a top ylew of same.

In the said drawing, A is the exterior or body of the pail, composed of tin, wood, or other suitable material. B is the bale or handle, U, the cover; D, the packing between body and lining; and E, the composition or interior lining, which is cast or spun up and properly attached to the body of the pail.

What I claim is Constructing a pail for use in prisons, &c., of tin or wood, A, having an interior or lining of composition,E, and a packing of non-conducting material, D, as a new article of manufacture, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my signature this 10th day of February, 1872.
